Lots of people have done the rotary conversion they were even doing it in the earily 80's. Use the search or look in some older magazines and you will probably find a turbo gemini rotary. I have seen 12A, 12A Turbo, 13B, 13B Supercharged, 13B Turbo, 20B Turbo, in gemini's.

i don't really have much idea but i know that you will need a new crossmember, engine mounts and sump. not sure if the standard gemini gearbox can be adapted to fit the rotor or not. you might need a different fuel pump and bigger fuel lines too. do it man, it'll be worth it, rotors are sick.

yer, that was meant to be 12a........
ne ways here are the details of my car, incase ne1 is looking 4 1.

td gemini
12a extend port
lightened flywheel
extreme h/d clutch
rx5 5 speed "dog box"
custom h/d tail shaft
front mounted oil cooler
racing seat
slx interior
BIG exhaust, tuned for max power but loud
was dyno'd at 105rwkw in old car

body is very average, especially now that ive started to strip the car down for a respray, some rust in boot.
$2500 firm, many thousands in recipts

im just trying to sell this thing so i can finish building my rx7, if no1 buys it ill finish it and put my old 13b turbo into it, and it will probably be for sale at the end of the year for around $8000.
